  1. jeff keppinger, another bum with a high BABIP
  2. That was pretty far off the plate! It wasn't that far off the plate! You can't take that pitch in that situation. You just can't. then everyone yells at him for swinging at balls.
  3. i swear, 80% of norris hopper's hits are complete dog crap
  4. plus every team in our division sucks, so i'm not sure what there is to complain about.
  5. i generally dislike Bama, but the Major going there gives me one reason to root for them.
  6. ah the nebulous claims of "you guys get as many as michigan does" by a michigan fan... yet zero detail on the calls that we do get. Meanwhile I can name 10 plays in the 2002 and 2005 games that were erroneous calls that went against penn state. If Michigan has gotten jobbed on fumble rulings, sideline calls and mysterious clock decisions, please provide some examples. I'd love to hear them. And by the way, Michigan did not have a better team in 2005... 2002 is arguable.
  7. that's okay guys, i didn't really want to make the playoffs anyway
  8. i knew once cliff got down 0-2 that he'd hit a double play dribbler. Way to be predictable grandpa.
  9. thanks a bunch, astros, for rolling a bunch of trash out to the mound to face the brew crew
  10. well this one is looking great already
  11. I don't know how much UM will win by but I feel pretty confident saying they will beat Penn State. based on? I don't think Penn State is very good, UM has the better starting QB and offense in general, and the game is at the Big House. i think this year proves that being at the Big House has little to no effect on the game Penn State has to be at least 10 points better to overcome the refs.
  12. so say LSU beating Arkansas say 42-21 should be worth as much as Florida beating Arkansas 21-20? Thats dumb. If you want to cap margin of victory at something, say 21-24 points, thats fine. Margin of victory certainly matters just as it does in baseball. But looking at final scores can be deceiving. I'll use your scores for an example. LSU wins after the score is 21-21 on a last minute TD and they return an offside kick for a TD. Florida is ahead 21-0 and puts in reserves and they give up 2 quick TD's and now they are on their heels and Arkansas scores again on a fumble recovery and then goes for 2 and fails. There are many scenarios like this that effect the final score and make the final score look different than the actuality of what really happened. lawl that's rich.... judging by Saturday's performance, Urban Meyer wouldn't put the reserves in until the score was 210-0.
  13. LOL...yeah all you guys that weren't mentioning Soto's name a few months ago...sheesh... You can't seriously expect that Hendry would include a message board community in his list of 'real people'. If he's referring to fans not talking about Soto, then why shouldn't he include message board people. As far as Cub fans go, this message board probably has a lot of the most knowledgeable and enthusiastic ones.
  14. Did you find it online? If so, I have to hear this. just go to mlb.com, click mlb.tv then the "listen" tab, and go forward to around 3:25 into the recording
  15. lawl i just listened to the bottom of the 9th on wgn radio... vintage ronny
  16. man he hit a home run now? awesome.
  17. cubs pitcher vs someone who will shut out the cubs " " " " " " "
  18. boy craig monroe and steve trachsel were real solid pickups by jim hendry. how'd we ever question his baseball genius?
